Panthers Won't Rush José's Return

From the Sun Sentinel:

The Panthers insist they won’t rush Theodore back despite their lack of depth at the position right now.

“You can’t do that,” goaltending coach Robb Tallas said. “It’s a small injury and you don’t want to make it serious. You do the right steps to make sure [Theodore] is 100 percent. [Scott] Clemmensen is a great goalie, and everybody has 100 percent confidence in him to carry this team right now.”

Until Theodore returns, the Panthers will depend on rookie Brian Foster to serve as Clemmensen’s back up.

About Me

José Theodore will always be my favorite goalie. I have played Animal Crossing video games since 2003. I work in a university library, and I've been married to a wonderful guy since 2002 (even though he's not a hockey fan ;)
